1-4pm in Latimer Street
We are very excited to have been asked to attend Beggars Fair in Romsey with a TLC dance demo – Al Fresco! We will be dancing in Latimer Walk, the area between Waitrose & Cook (SO51 8LA), as previous years. This is a wonderful event packed with people and bands playing all day at different places around Romsey centre with a few appointed dance slots … which is where we come in! This will be such a fantastic opportunity to showcase what we do best. Tracie will be playing a mix of Salsa, Tango, Ballroom Kizomba and Bachata plus all things latin.
You will need outdoor shoes with a smooth leather sole as we will be dancing on smooth pedestrianised pavements which will damage your dance shoes. NB If you have a bad back, knees, ankles, feet, please do not dance.
Parking
This is the busiest time of the year in Romsey and parking around the area will be very difficult. The organisers suggest taking the train where you can to Romsey station.
If travelling by car, please allow plenty of time and maybe car share if possible.
- This year, there will be free parking on Romsey Industrial Estate. Vehicle access is from Fishlake Meadows (by the Howdens store) and we suggest you drive to the far end before parking.
A signposted footpath will lead you to Alma Road/Station Road junction and it’s then just a short walk into town. - There will also be some free parking on the field behind The Cromwell Arms, provided it is not pouring with rain!
- Paid parking will be available in the town’s public carparks, including the one at Romsey Rapids leisure centre.
- Romsey Football Club will offer paid parking in their rear carpark beside the Rapids to raise funds for the Club.
- Romsey School will have parking at £5 for the day until the gates close at 10pm (cash on arrival or Just Park in advance) with all proceeds helping to fund its students’ trip to Nepal
- The only long stay car park is in Alma Road.
If sunny, don’t forget to slap on the sun tan cream, bring sun hats, drinks and fans!!
